Hmmm. It would be very difficult (mainly for maintaners) to classify some 
packages as "Optional" in such case. "Commom" sounds much better than 
"Optional" for me and, according to your examples of "common" packages, 
maintaners may always prefer "Common" as a priority for their packages.

BTW, do you think WindowMaker or Englightenment packages should have 
priorities "Common" in such case?
